2. Leann M.
“Leann was amazing! She made my whole trip worry-free by giving my cat medicine, feeding and snuggling him while I was away. I just got home and he’s happy as a clam sitting on the couch. Normally he’d be running around yelling at me. Leann, I can’t thank you enough ♥️♥️♥️”

I love all animals so dogs, cats, birds, pocket pets, and reptiles are all exceptional for me to take care of! I've owned dogs, reptiles, and right now have 2 cats of my own. Whether it's a check in on your pet while you're at work, or a month of house sitting while you're on vacation, I can help! Thank you for considering me. <3 Like stated before I a full time vet tech but I do have certain days of the week off to care for your pets! Take a peak at my calendar to see my availability. You can always reach out to me too if you need more details. I’ll do drop ins and overnight house sitting in your home to keep your pet as comfortable as possible. If it’s a walk we can go wherever they normally enjoy walking to.
7. Kristin C.
“Kristin was a fabulous animal sitter. She fed all three of our cats and both of our dogs which all of them have different food that they eat. She let him out before and after their breakfast and before and after their dinner, she stayed with them overnight, so they wouldn’t miss us . I would recommend Kristin for any of your pet sitting needs.”
8. Karrie S.
“Karrie definitely understands cats. Appreciated how well she took care of Ivy & Speckles. She stayed in touch & sent pics. She put out trash when I forgot to ask her to do so. And she offered to water plants. Cats & plants were in good hands! Thank you Karrie, appreciate everything you did when I was out of town.”

10. Alexis S.
“Alexis was great. I couldn’t have asked for a more caring, giving, responsible and communicative sitter. Both myself and my dogs felt immediately at ease with her, and I never had to worry about my babies while I was gone. She catered to each dog individually and even bought them tons of delicious treats. If you are looking for a compassionate sitter, Alexis is the epitome! Don’t hesitate to book her. I know I’ll be using her time and time again!”

About: Hi, I’m Gabbi, and I have over 6 years of experience caring for other people’s pets! I am new to Rover, but I have multiple pet sitting references that I can provide from customers that have had me hired me for years! I’ve watched dogs of all sizes from Great Pyrenees to Chihuahuas. I’ve handled hundreds of cats so I am used to every personality. I have also cared for reptiles, amphibians, fish, farm animals, and rodents. I’ve watched dogs who need vigorous exercise, as well as the opposite. I’ve cared for puppies and kittens, seniors, and every age in between. I’ve watched a litter of kittens that were still nursing. I have experience with cats and dogs affected by cerebral palsy, deafness, blindness, and other special needs. I am experienced in administering multiple forms of medication. I also volunteer for an animal shelter, which gives me a lot of unique situations and experiences! I have a relatively flexible schedule. I work part time at a dog grooming salon. My shifts are typically 6 hours or less, and I only work up to 3 days a week. I do sometimes have other commitments that are unlikely to take more than 4 hours at a time. I am currently only taking one online college class so that does not interfere with my availability. For people interested in boarding, I have a fenced yard and a 9/yo, 15 lb Shih Tzu who is very friendly. He is laid back and prefers dogs who are also laid back, but has never shown aggression with high energy dogs. I typically walk the dogs I watch at least once a day, but that can vary on the age and/or the activity level of the dog. I can also take them to a park, weather permitting! I always try to keep the pups experience as stress-free as possible, so I listen closely to everything you tell me about your pet. I try to stick to any routine that you guys share, whether that be feeding times, walking times, or anything else! I live in a quiet neighborhood where your dog will be safe with me.
12. Ali M.
“My dogs love Ali, He’s very good with my dogs, I moved about an hour away but when I go out of town is the first person I called to babysit my dogs. I still refer people to Ali. We have a nickname for dog whisper”
13. Jessica L.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and love all kinds of animals. We’ve had every size from German Shepards to Australian Shepard to shih-tzu! I always loved to help out and take of feeding and bathing the dogs when I got older. My sister and I also have a cat, both of which I care for on a regular basis. My boyfriend is great at training and taking care of dogs and I currently work part time at a chiropractic office but I always come home for lunch on days I’m there longer and my roommates are dog friendly and can let out your babies! I currently only have a cat and he’s not very good company on walks, so I would love to go outside and hang out with your dog. Everyone would be super welcoming to a new temporary addition! I would stay out with them whenever they were outside to ensure they were safe, and play with them wherever I can. Walking after work on a leash. My neighborhood always has people walking their dogs and is a dog friendly place. However I do sleep in the basement so it would be better if the dog felt comfortable with stairs if boarding.

16. Claire S.
“My husband and I were worried about going on vacation and leaving behind our fur baby! I have been hesitant about using a doggie day care or kennel service with multiple other dogs. Claire has come to our home on two separate occasions now to dog sit. Once for 4 days and the other she stayed for 10 days. She not only took fantasic care of of our dog, but she cleaned the house!”
17. Shelby S.
“Shelby is one of the hardest workers I know. She is full of energy and absolutely adores animals! She has rehabbed many animals. Animals that have been abused and even used as bait dogs she has turned into loving animals. She would be a wonderful asset to your team. Thank you, Alison Bell 480-276-3125”

About: I have spent my life with pets. I've fostered for rescue, worked with several pet food companies and am very educated in pet nutrition. I've volunteered at my local humane society. I'm an experienced pet handler and have worked with a pet relocation company providing boarding and long distance ground transportation. I have and excellent knowledge of dog breeds and breed specific behavior and needs. I treat every animal I work with as if he/she were my own. All animals in my care are treated as royalty. I have a special love for senior and special needs dogs and always welcome them for services. I will always treat your pet as a member of the family and take extra special care when taking them on dogs walks and transporting them. I'm bonded and insured and a member of the National Association of Professional Pet Sitters I work from home part-time so I'm always home for daycare and boarding. I also have the flexibility to do drop-in visits and petsitting in your home In home boarding and daycare are cage free. Pups are crated at night for sleeping depending on how many dogs are in the house, how well I know them and of course, what they're sleeping preferences are. I'm not a fan of crating pups unless its necessary for health and or safety.

“Samantha Barber is a very responsible and reliable person. She is also honest. She goes over and beyond her duties. She always put animals first. Animals love her. When they see her they come running. She even has animals that are not social come up to her. She definitely would be the right person to care for someone' s loved one. She believes that animals are like family.”

“Amanda is absolutely amazing! I met her because a friend of mine told me how great she did with her pets, she even watched her horses and chickens, and I have been using her ever since!”
